  Think he will make the 13 inch rule or does he need to go another year.

+1 Left side just didn't make it. Looks cool though.

Don't think he's going to make it because of that left side - he needs another year or two anyways, so play it safe and let him pass.

If he does it will be close. If you move the antlers to center up on the ears I think it would be right at the tip of both ears so very close to 13 inches. Looks like he is the same distance outside the right ear as he is inside the left. As stated above, if you have to ask then better safe than sorry.

Close but it depends on what you would call the main beam.

 to close to tell. Show the pic to a GW. If you e-mail the pic to him, the answer will be in writting.
If I'm not hunting something I must be dead.

I think he is close and will make it, but need a closer look I guess. I thank y'all for your responses keep em comeing. This is my main problem with AR, cause this is gonna be hard to pass up with a bow.

The only thing that may make him a shooter is the fact his left ear is not fully erect in either pic and makes it that much harder. If the left ear is erect like the right then I think he just might make it on second look. Good luck.

i would shoot it and then put the tape to him and find out. thats the only way to know for sure.
I have found that diversity adds balance to things. And thats why i shoot a diversity of animals. so i can bring balance to my freezer

That dude's all kinds of cockeyed, left side's outside the ears and right isn't, I'd let him go cuz he will be next year.

Close indeed but I would say just a bit over 13".
I would personally pass, but wouldn't dislike anyone who took a deer like that
